A quarter of a century ago TVNZ knew that "digital", or rather the Internet, was the way of the future. I know, I was there.

It created nzoom.com for those that remember it.

A decade ago, it was still a "broadcaster" with an adjunct "digital" presence with TVNZ Ondemand.

Only on the last few years has it started to truly operate "digital" (internet) first, I'm afraid that it might be too late and we see another newshub-scale catastrophe in the next few years.

TVNZ shouldn't be for profit. It should be a public service

And people who own fewer than 10 houses shouldn't vote for national or Labour, but...🤷

Exactly. We need a robust public journalism infrastructure in this country.
